TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — A Tampa Bay area teacher faces charges after another teacher accused him of head-butting a student.

Tampa police report that 33-year-old William Chaney was arrested and charged Monday with child abuse and battery. He was later released on $2,500 bail.

Police say Chaney was in an AMI Kids classroom last Thursday when a 13-year-old student was “horsing around.” A report says Chaney head-butted the boy twice after the boy side the first time didn’t hurt.

Another teacher reported the incident to school officials, who reported it to authorities.
